My Mother has told me countless times that my Great Grandmother Cora would get bits of fabric and just braid away. She was from Virginia and apparently made all her own rugs that way. I believe it's called a rag rug? I thought that for my Nellie Make Do Merit badge I would learn this style of weaving and make a rug! Is anyone here versed in this at all? I'd love some tips!
